Apple was founded in 1976 in Los Altos, California, by Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne, and is headquartered in Cupertino. It introduced the Apple Watch in September 2014. In India, Apple opened its first own store, Apple BKC in Mumbai, in April 2023, followed two days later by Apple Saket in Delhi.
We’ve bought, used and rated 710 accessories products so far, 313 of them in Watches. Products in Watches average an FA score of 8.1 out of 10. Every score comes from our own testing, never from the brand.
We rate it 7.8/10 (good) after buying and testing it ourselves. What we liked most: Practical smart features including step tracking, call/message management, and strong built-in flashlight. Could be better: Rectangular case profile can look bulky on slim wrists.

No. Apple is from the USA, founded in 1976.
We buy every product ourselves and score it out of 10 on material quality, design and comfort and value for money. The FA score is the average of those scores. No paid placements: brands can’t buy a better score.
